Repair information and guides for the updated version of the 2015 Retina MacBook that was released in early 2016. Model A1534 / EMC 2991

Shift button never works

hi i think this is a common prolem with the 2016 retina 12" macbook. the shift key almost never works unless i hit it a certain way or press extremely hard, and even then half the time it doesn't work. it is operational, just about 80% of the time it doesnt work, especially if i am casually typing. any fix? will try compressed air soon, just wondering if anyone has experienced this and found a fix.

edit. the key isnt 'stuck' like other reports. it has the same tactile feedback and doesnt seem to be anything necessarily wrong with it, just when i press it, it rarely registers.

Sadly, you'll need to get the keyboard replaced as the switch element under the key has a problem.
